Chen took the tea from Su Wan's hand, raised his head and took a big mouthful. Only then did he feel that his tone was a little smoother.

"The Zeng boy may not know that he would ask a matchmaker to come to the door before he came to propose marriage. He knew it, but his mother didn't tell him on purpose.

Mom should be looking down on us Yanyan.” Chen said.

Su Wan was shocked when he heard this. Now that the Gu family wants money, there are people, and there are power. Gu Yuan has now learned about the Yuan Dynasty. It is just around the corner to make a name for himself next year. It is easy to get an official position.

Is there anything in the Zeng family?

There are two broken houses in the county town, Zeng’s mother who is plagued by illness, and Zeng Wenxian, who is just a scholar.

Before, she treated Zeng's mother, but she thought Zeng's mother was quite kind, but she didn't expect that she was so arrogant.

Chen sighed and said, "Jiang just now, everyone was telling me that their ancestors had a high-ranking official, and Zeng Wenxian's grandfather Zeng Guan was awarded the third rank.

Zeng Wenxian has been awesome since childhood and will definitely be able to shine on his family in the future. She was not in a hurry to marry Zeng Wenxian, and planned to let her son start a career and then start a family.

Unexpectedly, Zeng Wenxian fell in love with our Yanyan herself and pestered her to come and settle the marriage. When she was in high school, she married Yanyan.

The meaning of Zeng's words should be that he originally planned to wait until Zeng Wenxian went to high school before he asked for a marriage to the lady of the official family for him.

Although our Ayuan is successful, even if he is in high school next year, his foundation in the officialdom will be shallow. In the future, he will not be able to help Zeng Wenxian in the officialdom."

When Su Wan heard Chen's words, she realized that Zeng's mother said a lot to Chen.

After all, Chen used to know nothing about the foundation of officialdom and the help of others.

The Gu family has been honest farmers for generations. Chen used to tell Gu Yuan that he would study hard and do his best to serve the country and the people when he became an official. As long as he did his best, both His Majesty and the people would know that he was a good official.

Su Wan originally thought that Zeng Wenxian and Gu Yan could be a good marriage, but she didn't expect it to be like this!

If Zeng's mother was such a person, let alone Chen, even if she was her, she would not want Gu Yan to marry her.

After all, Zeng Wenxian is just a scholar, and Zeng’s mother is just like that.

If Zeng Wenxian passed the Juren or even passed the Jinshi in the future, let alone taking a concubine to Zeng Wenxian.

Even if Gu Yan is forced to leave the court, it is possible that the butler lady who gives up her wife and helps Zeng Wenxian's promotion will be more helpful.

——

When Zeng Wenxian went to Gu's house in the morning, the smile on his face was even more dazzling than the sun in the sky.

At this time, it was like a eggplant made from frost, completely wilted.

The gifts he brought were confiscated by the Gu family, and the uncle Gu and Aunt Chen who were kind to him yesterday looked at him colder and colder today.

When Aunt Chen sent them out, although she was kind enough, her expression on her face was exactly the same as when she drove away the unscrupulous second aunt of their family yesterday.

When he saw the big bamboo broom leaning against the wall of the courtyard, he was afraid that Aunt Chen would suddenly pick up the broom and beat them.

Zeng's mother has a problem of weak lungs. Even though she has recovered a little in the past six months, it has damaged her body and is weak.

At this moment, she sat on the ox cart and blew the wind and coughed immediately.

Zeng Wenxian didn't care about his loss, so he quickly patted his mother's back and asked nervously: "Mom, are you okay?"

Zeng's mother looked at Zeng Wenxian with loving eyes, shook her head, pulled Zeng Wenxian to sit beside her, and said, "Xian'er, mom is fine, you sit down."

Zeng Wenxian sat down respectfully beside Zeng’s mother.

Zeng's mother covered her thin hand on the back of Zeng Wenxian's hand, "Xian'er, for today's affairs, my mother deliberately did not tell you to ask the matchmaker to come to ask for a question first.

You said you were going to propose marriage, and my mother prepared a gift to you as you prepared.
